With new revelations calling into question the theory of the "lone gunman", Clare Thorp explores how JFK's assassination continues to live on in popular culture.
This November, it will be 60 years since the assassination of President John F Kennedy. A significant anniversary usually provides a chance to remember and reflect on past events – but, in the case of JFK's death, interest has never really faltered. Almost immediately after those gunshots rang out on a sunny autumn day in Dallas, speculation over Kennedy's death began, and it hasn't stopped since.

The thing the deep state does best is “protect the deep state”.
Prima facia proof of a cover-up.

The release of all the documents/testimony would accomplish nothing. There would still be those arguing the release was part of a bigger conspiracy. Some just like conspiracies.
And here comes DugwayDuke, laying a wreath before the Warren Commission and our CIA.
Who killed Kennedy?
Well after all, it was you and me.
You forgot Mossad.
JFK was determined to keep Israel from getting the atomic bomb.
LBJ made sure it happened.
They had motive, means and opportunity and a champion in the CIA in Counter-Intelligence Chief James Jesus Angleton.
They even have a monument in his honor:
Most common sense people figured this out 50 years ago.
I don’t know. If it did, I would be rich or dead.
I was just thinking about missing that when I responded to another post. You are correct.
At that time, Dallas was a very conservative big city believe it or not. True to their genes, the media and democrat politicians immediately blamed a “right wing” mindset for the assassination.
From the very begining the media try to blame the Right Wing. This was the moment America moved left. JFk was a moderateto somewhat Conservative( although not as Conservative as most Freepers). LBJ wasa ragging liberal. Reagan pulled us out of the spiral in the80’s, but the left took this crisis, and began the long March through the institutions.
If you watch the media coverage the day of the assassination, they did several “man in the street” inteviews to get peoples’ reaction to the assassination. They almost all said they thought Right-Wingers did it, and the interviewers were basically feeding them the lines. So the media was definitely in on “The Right-Wing did it!” meme.
The reason I wouldn’t have voted for Goldwateristhat he jokes about Nuclear War.
I was told if I voted for Goldwater, we’d have riots in the streets and get into a long unwinnable war. Well I voted for Goldwater, and darned if they weren’t right.
+100
I think Harry Truman had an idea. Unless the timing of his oped was completely random.
Goldwater and JFK were very good friends.
Ruby had become a fixture at the police department by hanging out and ingratiating himself with officers. They all knew him (strip club may have had something to do with it) so his presence didn’t arouse their suspicions.
Same thing happened to me. After all, who would want a conservative decorated WW2 Air Force general combat pilot over a filthy, corrupt, vulgar, race bating, leftist democrat politician?
From my observation of the flow of American history over the last 80 plus years, that 1964 election was THE turning point in our destiny. The Obama/Biden years are just the ruination of the tattered society remaining.
